<Example 6>
The hot water inside an electric pot is maintained at 92 C.
When a thermometer is placed in this hot water, the values indicated by the
thermometer at times x and the differences y between these values and the
temperature of the hot water are shown below. Using Euler's exponential
regression, find the formula that expresses the relation between each time x
and the temperature difference y.
